My face thanks you both

Firstly, I'd like to say that I lost a follower.  It's not like it's a big deal, because I don't think I even know who's who of my followers...because we all choose names like "CarolinaGrown7" (that's mine...I think...not really sure...) and blogger won't let me click and see what their blogs are, just who else they follow. L.A.M.E. But anyway, it's still a little sad. Sorry, whomever you were.

Anyway, I just wanted to share what I did yesterday.
Nothing.
Well, not nothing. I did a lot of nothing productive.
Recently I have discovered the wonderful world of makeup.  Now, as a 27 year old woman (I still want to call myself a girl), I should know a thing or two about makeup by now, right? Nope.  All I've ever known about makeup is what the girl at the Clinique counter told me. And they all disagreed with whatever the last girl told me.
So anyway, my friend Kayla from SVU started a you tube channel and I LOVE it!


After watching her for a couple of months, I decided to branch out and see who else had things to say about makeup.  Now, let me mention that I'm picky about everything to do with entertainment.  Books. TV, movies, video games, etc. I'm so opinionated it's ridiculous, especially ridiculous in this case (did you know that it took me 3 tries to spell that word right...) because I don't know anything about makeup myself! So, I LOVE Kayla, but any time there was a "related link" below her video that You Tube thought I should like...I hated it. They were all flippy girls who looked like they've never seen the inside of a book (and I can't abide people who don't read, sorry) or...I don't know. Here, let me give you an example.
Don't even click on that link if you can help it...I mean, you can get the gist of her from the picture.
This girl makes me want to VOMIT! Ugh. And she embodies everything I dislike about the "makeup world" and this is how I see all of them.
Except for Kayla.
And this next girl.
Now, I saw this random link to another channel, and I decided to give it a try...And I fell in love with her channel!!!  Her name is Livie and she is from Wales. Okay, let's stop right there. I love EVERYONE British! Alright, that's not true, because I followed a link to another Brit from her page and I wasn't a fan, BUT, I do love this girl.
Here she is:
I love her so much that I literally spent all day yesterday watching her old videos. Yeah. She has 75 videos.  Okay, I didn't watch all of them.  Only like 85% of them.
And then I just wanted to watch more makeup videos so I rewatched some of Kayla's.
I'm such a loser.
But I know things now that I never knew before.
And thanks to Kayla, I have a new hair routine that allows my curls to be curls instead of non-curls.
